    motifs/domains
  • a RING-zinc finger domain
  • two B boxes (one type 1 and one type 2)
  • a coiled-coil domain (RBCC), the so-called tripartite motif
  • a serine/proline rich region
  • a nuclear localization signal (NLS)
  • a TIF1 signature sequence (TJS)
  • a C-terminal PHD (plant homeodomain)) motif
  • a bromodomain (PHD-Bromo domain provides a structural rationale for chromatin activation through a non-canonical histone signature, establishing a new route by which chromatin readers may influence cancer pathogenesis
  • conjugated PhosphoP

    basic FUNCTION
  • mediating transcriptional control by interaction with the activation function 2 (AF2) region of several nuclear receptors
  • potent liver-specific tumor suppressor
  • regulates AR-mediated transcription in collaboration with KAT5 and BRD7
  • E3-ubiquitin ligase targeting TP53, broadly associated with chromatin silencing, that relies on PHD-Bromo domain and activate oestrogen-dependent genes associated with cellular proliferation and tumour development
  • acts as a cell-autonomous tumor suppressor in quiescent hepatocytes
  • differentially modulate carcinogenesis in a nuclear receptor and tissue-specific manner
  • negative regulator of the interferon/STAT pathway, suggesting that this repression through RARA inhibition may prevent liver cancer
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell life, proliferation/growth

    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    text
  • cell growth and proliferation
  • transcriptional modulator
  • myeloid differentiation
  • PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • with PML, RXRA, RARA of a transcription complex, retinoic acid dependent
  • TRIM24 exists in a major complex with TRIM33 and a lesser abundant complex with TRIM33 and TRIM28
  • INTERACTION
    DNA binding
    RNA
    small molecule metal binding,
  • Zn2+
  • protein
  • silencing domain of KOX1
  • interacting with CBX1 and CBX3
  • interacting with NR3C2
  • partner of TP53 (ubiquitylates and negatively regulates TP53 levels, suggesting TRIM24 as a therapeutic target to restore tumor suppression by TP53)
  • binds to BRD7, which can negatively regulate cell proliferation and growth (TRIM24 regulates AR-mediated transcription in collaboration with KAT5 and BRD7)
  • interacts with AR and enhances transcriptional activity of AR by dihydrotestosterone in prostate cancer cells
  • binds chromatin and oestrogen receptor to activate oestrogen-dependent genes associated with cellular proliferation and tumour development
  • potent co-activator of ESR1, which is associated with cellular proliferation and neoplasia in breast cells
  • interacts with the liganded retinoic acid (RA) receptor to repress its transcriptional activity
  • cooperative action of TRIM24 and TRIM33 in tumor suppression
  • is a novel negative regulator of the IFN/STAT pathway, suggesting that this repression through RARA inhibition may prevent liver cancer
